Very good value for money. The hotel is nicely renovated with no waste in space. Sheets are very clean and bed is comfortable. Room is neat and has no smell.
The only issue is that it could be very nosey during the weekend because there is a bar in the ground floor. I didn’t experience it because I stayed in weekdays.
Always cheap and cheerful; it's quiet at night and we stay here often. Close to fantastic cosmopolitan restaurants; this time we stayed for the very groovy Blues Festival. Rooms just have basic ingredients but the helpful staff will sort anything else you need.
Arrival: Upon arrival I was greeted by a new guy who was pretty new to the St Kilda gang. He seemed very lovely but it did take him a while to get me checked in. 15 minutes later I was still standing there waiting for him to tell me what was happening so perhaps better communication from him in the future would come across more friendly to new arrivals. Rooms: When checking into my room, the room was super spacious and the beds were definitely the best I've had yet, with lockers above the beds and space underneath too. The best bit is the curtains to allow for a bit more privacy when wanting to chill in your room. The walls are PAPER-THIN though so you can literally hear everything from the corridors/out the windows from downstairs. If you're on the bottom floor, you're pretty much stuffed cause I would class this as a party hostel and you're never gunna get much sleep. People: The people at this hostel seemed really friendly. I did bump into a lot of Dutch people though and in my opinion are not the friendliest. The hostel hosts events most nights - pretty much 100% of which involve drinking. So, if you're a non drinker it doesn't really cater for us. There was not 1 event I saw that didn't involve alcohol and as a non-drinker I would have liked to see more of that. I was mostly looking forward to beach volleyball and 'peer pong' but these were cancelled for no reason so that was pretty disappointing. St Kilda Team: The cleaners are really lovely and got a really good vibe from all of them - there was one particular guy from Columbia who was an angel! As for the Canadian receptionist, you should get another job... sorry but being front-of-house is not your skill - you are so unfriendly and made everyone feel so on-edge. The tall skinny guy on reception was also really sweet. Location: The location is right by the beach, only a 5-minute walk so really great location and also right by the tram station.
We stayed here quite a while back when visiting Melbourne and thought we would try it again. We enjoyed the location and the nearby cafes and supermarket but this time we were very disappointed on so many levels. We were charged on our credit card instead of the usual holding deposit. We did not want the charge of the credit card fee and the guy at reception did not advise us that we could avoid this by using EFTPOS. The kitchen bench and cooktop were dirty with white residue when we walked in. We were advised prior to arriving that due to Covid, the room would not be serviced which we understood. However, upon returning to the room after a day out at 6pm, on the 2nd day of our arrival, we noticed our front door was ajar and not closed properly. Apparently, housekeeping came and left clean towels, but the dirty towels not taken. One bed was made and the others not. We were very angry that our room was left open which was a security risk. We complained to numerous people at reception and asked for compensation at this breach. We were refunded our parking for the duration we were there. We were very fortunate that nothing was stolen, Also, when turning on the exhaust fan in the kitchen, all this white stuff fell out all over the food we were preparing on the cooktop. Disgusting! The remote in the bedroom aircon did not work and staff did not try to get another - just said 'sometimes they get mixed up”. The button to press to turn on was too high up to reach. The shower was difficult to get a decent temperature of water - either boiling hot or cold! The WiFi was disconnected after 2 days and when we called and asked why, they replied that we were checking out. We advised that we only checked in the previous day!!! It seems they had used a password for a previous customer and not changed or extended it. The parking on site is $10 a day but if you have a car parked opposite you, it's a little tricky to get out. Driving out of the gate, there is a steep dip and it scratches the bottom of the front of the car. I would not recommend this place and next time we visit Melbourne, we will look elsewhere.
4 x 夜在這家酒店出差墨爾本。這是一個不錯的4星級酒店。很容易到達和靠近聖基爾達,離墨爾本CBD不太遠。房間很好,我對這種風格的物業的期望。不錯,牀很結實,空調,鍾(我喜歡),浴室還可以,熱水真的很熱。早餐有一層餐廳,早餐很美味的咖啡館/酒類商店。如果你不想在酒店吃飯,步行不遠就有咖啡館。現場停車每晚20美元(室內或室外)。前面的道路是白天的Clearway,所以你幾乎不得不使用他們的停車場。我認爲它不太貴(這次住宿我沒有付錢)。沒什麼不好報告-一切都很好。
